If a man hunts wild game for himself and offers it to a person in the state of ihram, may he eat it?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : He says: If a man hunts wild game for himself and offers it to a person in the state of ihram, is it permissible to eat it? What is the answer?
It is not permissible in the sacred precinct. If he hunts game, it is forbidden for him and for others, whether they are in the state of ihram or not.
The questioner : Did he hunt it for himself?
The Shaykh : He hunted it for himself, but is he in the state of ihram or not?
If a man hunts wild game for himself, yes, meaning the hunter is not in the state of ihram and did not intend it for the person in ihram; is that your question? What do you say? A man not in the state of ihram hunts game for himself and offers it to a person in the state of ihram. We mentioned two opinions in this matter, my brothers!
The questioner : We held that it is permissible.
The Shaykh : Yes, but we mentioned two opinions, meaning the second opinion was confusing for the questioner. We mentioned two opinions and said the correct one is that it is permissible. The correct one is that it is permissible, and this is the way to reconcile the hadith of Abu Qatadah with the hadith of al-Sa'b ibn Jathamah.
